    Saturday 7/31 VT Run

    Any interest in a Saturday VT/Berkshire rip?

    Perhaps an Ice Cream stop, perhaps dinner, perhaps not. Open ended ride, route to be determined while riding.

    Perhaps meet up near Gardner on Rt.2 sometime close to 10 and go from there?

    Either that or we could head up to Keene, NH and run Rt.9 all the way to VT.

    Not a rip'roarin run, just spirited when it counts.

    I know it's short notice, but hey, what do ya want for nothin!

    Throwin up the idea right now, nothing is set in stone. If enough interest, I'll throw a route together that will promise at least some smiles.

    You guys are headin out a bit on the early side for my taste. I still gotta stop in Ashburnham to swap a shock on the Z-Rex before the ride. If'n you guys wanna postpone it a little while, I could be encouraged to come along.

    I can probably meet you up in Keene or Jaffrey for 10. I'll shoot you my cell phone so that if I totally screw up replacing the shock you guys won't have to wait for me.

    Sound decent?

    Thank you Thank you Thank you

    I cannot say it enough. That was a fucking awesome day for me. Wife in hospital drugged up and daughter with a friend for the entire day and night. Me single for a day. No better way to spend it.

    Clayton, those were great roads. Nine hours and 291 miles makes for a nice day. Also makes my ass hurt like hell but well worth it.

    Thanks again guys

    Now a quick shower and out for drinks.

    it was interesting to say the least. those monsters put out crazy HP - lowest was 1500 and highest at 2000....that's right - 2000hp.......on 66in tires.

    Sat was good cause it rained all day so the tracks were super muddy ad they still had the fire hoses out to make it really muddy. Sunday was hot and i got sunburned on my face....

    We were WAY understaffed for what the promoters wanted us to do so that all ended up on me cause I'm the big guy they want to move the entire crowd - not fun....

    some crazy mud flyin around and some really nice lookin trucks and Jeeps in the shows. I had fun but I wouldn't pay 15 bucks to get in.....i'd rather get paid to be there
